Last night I was having trouble with my DSL account. I called the trouble report number and reported the problem. About half an hour later I got a call back saying that water in the wires was causing troubles with the UBS server.

I looked up UBS and found that it means "unbundled bitestream" and that it has to do with providing "high speed dsl (above 128kb)", but there was no reference to this as a server.

Am I missing something or what?I have been using dsl for about three years and have never reference of this before.
